ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor device has a semiconductor substrate including a light receiving element, a silicon oxide film formed on the semiconductor substrate, a plurality of wiring interlayer films formed on the silicon oxide film, and each including a wiring layer formed as the result of the fact that copper is buried, and a silicon nitride film formed on the wiring interlayer film of the uppermost layer wherein Si—H concentration is smaller than N—H concentration.
